AB The Internet allows teenagers to express their identity through the publication of imagesand texts on social networks, but sometimes they may develop self-esteem problems as a result. Thepresent study analyzed self-esteem levels, and their relationship with sexism, Internet use and theinfluence of likes, in 309 subjects, by asking them about Internet use, social networks, self-esteem andsexism. The results showed low levels of self-esteem, although boys scored higher on the overall scaleand for hostile sexism. Similarly, those with higher percentages of low self-esteem showed higherscores for benevolent sexism. It can be concluded that the use of social networks and the Internet, inrelation to sexist attitudes, influences adolescents’ self-esteem and social construction.
